Tribulations from Twitter

[cleolinda]

So, to recap from Monday:

@cleolinda: Diagnosis: twenty year old house, never had any plumbing repairs. Thus, $1500. $800 of it today. I just don't even bat an eyelash anymore.

This is of absolutely no help whatsoever, but my week sure as hell has gotten some perspective.

NEXT WEEK MUST BE BETTER.

I usually celebrate TLAP Day, but I am so tired that I don't know that I can bring myself to care.

There is a rumour in my area that our Totally Awesome Rabbi...may do part of the Rosh Hashanah sermon in Pirate.

Around here, several members of our congregation are seriously discussing how one WOULD Daven(pray) Like a Pirate, and whether having it land on Shabbat changes the rules any.

[sternbunny]

If he does, can you please update/tell folks? I think that is awesome and my father-in-law who loves Talk Like a Pirate Day and teaches Hebrew and Old Testament would _love_ to hear about all of it.

That is an amazing week.

And I know today's stuff very well. (Enter story here about our 15-lb dog eating a yard of fabric)

[ninepointfivemm]

She had what we THOUGHT was a 4-inch piece of fabric sticking to her butt. My mom tugged, and it came coming... and coming... until a YARD came out. A YARD.

It was remnants from my Catwoman costume, which makes me LOL.

That's actually worse than when mine ate a giant mixing bowl filled with fresh-picked Morell mushrooms.

Ack, corneal ulcer? Been there -- make sure she follows the doctor's orders w/r/t when to use the drops and for how long. I kind of failed at that, and now my cornea has a chronic erosion. IS NOT FUN. JUST FYI.

[lady_findel]

I once had an ulcer on my right eye cornea. It took six months of drops to cure it. I was not allowed to wear my lense. The funny thing was, that I did not feel anything. My eye wasn't irritated at all!

So if your mom takes the droplets, she'll be fine.
